第一篇：英語周記與寫作

題目：通過寫周記提高中學生的英語寫作能力 單位：大埔縣田家炳試驗中學

作者：張相朋

通過寫周記提高中學生的英語寫作能力

在目前的英語教學中, 英語寫作是學生相對薄弱的一個環節, 而且很多學生懼怕寫作。學生在英語寫作中主要存在無話可寫、用漢語思維方式寫作、語法錯誤百出等問題。本人認為此種現象出現的主要原因是：中學英語教學嚴重忽視寫作訓練。為了提高學生的英語寫作水平，我覺得讓學生寫英語周記是很有效的方法。

高中學生已有一定的基礎知識，這時完全可以讓學生自己寫點東西，培養學生的寫作能力。學生通過寫周記，可以復習舊知識；通過老師批改周記，學生訂正錯誤，無疑學生在語法方面會有很大的進步。學生寫周記的過程中，必然會遇到生詞、生句，學生就會問同學、問老師、“問”詞典。學生對自己所想要表達的單詞、句子印象會特別深，日積月累，學生的詞匯量就大大增加了。學生寫周記----教師批改周記----學生看批語過程是師生間進行思想和情感交流的過程，周記里學生會告訴老師他的喜悅、他的煩惱，這樣師生間的距離拉近了，感情加深了，學生對老師有了深厚的感情，自然就樂于學英語。

根據我的做法，我覺得要讓學生寫好周記，作為老師，應該注意以下幾點：

一、讓學生養成用英文寫周記的習慣。

寫作難首先難在無話可說，“問渠哪得清如許，為有源頭活水來”。教師應該鼓勵學生積極地去感悟生活，用心體驗和感悟身邊的人和事，然后將體驗和感受用英語表達出來。寫周記貴在堅持，要養成習慣，切忌三天打魚兩天曬網。開頭可能會很艱難，教師應該要求學生用周末的空閑來完成一篇英語作文，內容可以不限，題材不限。有的學生實在不會寫，可以讓他們去抄一篇自己認為比較好的范文，學習別人如何寫作。同時教師可以放低要求，只要學生用心去寫了，就給與肯定，最大限度的調動學生的積極性，只要學生堅持下去，就會慢慢“上手”，感覺越來越容易，興趣就會越來越高，效果也就越來越明顯。

二、通過供給語言材料，幫學生掃除障礙

學生寫周記的內容大都離不開學校內外的一些活動，但往往因為詞匯量不足，表達時不能得心應手。這時需要老師做個有心人，及時補充他們可能用到的詞。比如：舉辦

運動會，參觀名勝古跡，紀念五四運動，慶祝國慶，迎元旦，看電影，看展覽及一些重大的國際國內活動等常用的詞匯。這樣學生寫起來就順手了，更能表達他們的“要講之言”。

三、從基本句型訓練入手，指導學生造出規范性句子

剛進入高中的學生，英語書面表達能力一般較差，所以剛開始寫英文周記，大部分學生不是滿篇的Chinese English，就是詞匯的隨意湊合。為了克服這一毛病，要從抓基本句型訓練入手，指導學生進行造句訓練。英語的基本句型有五種:1.S+V。2.S+V+C。

3.S+V+O。4.S+V+O+O。5.S+V+O+C。幾乎所有的英語句型都是在這五種基本句型基礎上擴大、延伸和變化。我要求學生每次在寫周記之前，先就自己要寫的內容，用五種基本句型組合句子，寫成大意，再組成短文。如記一次大掃除，可以先造出如下句子:

1． It was the fourth Friday of this month.(S+V+C)

2． We cleaned our classroom.(S+V+O)

3． Some students moved the desks and chairs.(S+V+O)

4． Others mopped the floor.(S+V+O)

5． Our monitor and I cleaned the windows.(S+V+O)

6． We worked two hours.(S+V)

8． We gave our classroom a thorough cleaning.(S+V+O+O)

9． We saw the classroom bright and clean.(S+V+O+C)

10． We were happy.(S+V+C)

在此基礎上，再加上適當的過渡詞或連詞，就可以連接成為一篇基本合乎文法要求的英文周記了。

在加強基本句型訓練的同時，還要指導學生注意英文遣詞造句的規律和習慣。如寫“梅州發生了巨大的變化”，一般不說“Meizhou has happened great changes.“而應說:”Great changes have taken place in Meizhou.” 教師對這些問題要給學生多做分析，歸納對比。

四、用寫短評的形式來提高學生的英文寫作能力。

由于學生生活相對單調，學生寫了一段周記之后，部分學生又會覺得無事可記，沒有話可說。此時老師可以給學生提供一些與時事或日常生活相關的材料，讓無事可記的學生去寫出簡短的評論，此類話題具有很強的現實性，能誘發學生的寫作興趣，使他們

有話可寫、有感而發。寫短評不僅有效解決了“無話可寫”的問題，還能增強學生們的信心，使他們的寫作能力和技巧得到充分的鍛煉和提高。

高中英語新教材中有很多與現實生活貼近的話題，教師可以就這些話題讓學生用短評的形式在作文中寫下自己的看法。如在學習高一必修（3）Health eating 這一單元時，筆者讓學生以“My view on health eating”為題寫短評。學生們各抒己見，寫出了不少有見地的文章來。

除了教材中的話題外，教師還可以從廣播、電視、報紙等媒體上尋找熱點話題或時事，讓學生寫下自己的意見。這樣一來，平時兩耳不聞窗外事的學生有了接觸現實的機會，拓寬了他們的視野和知識面，提高了寫作技能，也培養了他們的思維能力和判斷能力。

五、批改周記要有針對性

雖然批改一篇周記要花很多時間，但是作為教師還是要堅持認真批改每一本，針對每個同學的具體情況提出不同的要求：

對于基礎較差的學生，要求他們基本做到用詞得當，句子結構正確，語法規范，沒有拼寫錯誤等等。這樣適當放寬要求，有利于基礎較差的學生克服畏難心理。同時還要不失時機地加上鼓勵性評語，使學生增強信心。例如，一位學生在一篇周記上只寫了: Yesterday I played basketball.I and my classmates played very well.We had a good time yesterday.我在糾正其中的錯誤之后，給了他這樣的評語: Your weekly journal is not bad,并表示: I am glad that you had a happy day.接著提出問題:

Please answer my following questions:

What day was yesterday ?

Did you have any classes at school ?

What time did you go to play basketball ?

Who did you play with

How did you play?

Were they glad to play with you ?

學生顯然受到鼓勵,周記發下后立即根據我的提問回答:

It was Saturday yesterday.We had no classes at school?We had a lot of fun in our weekend.回答完之后,學生高興地發現自己居然寫成一篇稍為像樣的短文了。

對于程度較好的學生，我則要求他們在遣詞造句符合英語習慣、語言通暢，并提出更高要求。如：“Your work is well done, But it will be better if you keep it clean and tidy / pay attention to your spelling.”“It’s good to be correct.But it’s good to be correct.But it’s also important to use your own words and try to think in English.”

對中等生的作業, 教師應多一點督促.如:“I’m sorry you have made the mistake again, Don’t so careless.”“Are you working hard these days?”同時評語還應涉及學生學習和生活的方方面面,表達形式多樣化,可以是詞匯、句子，也可以是三言兩語的描述和隨感、提問。如：“What a good idea!”“Don’t you think you are not listening carefully enough in class recently?”“If you read more you can understand better.”有時也可以寫上一句諺語,如：“No pains no gains.”“Where there is a will there is a way.”這些話語都能很好地鼓勵學生, 從而增強學生的自信心,進而提高學生的學習興趣,使學生由被動的“要我學”轉變為主要的“我要學”, 同時也能提高他們的寫作能力。

六、采用靈活多變的方法進行批改

批改是促進學生能力發展的重要環節?？梢圆捎萌缦路椒?

1．教師當面批改與課堂講評相結合。對語言錯誤較多的學生，教師可當面批改。對于學生在周記中提到的學習和生活中的問題，也可以找學生當面溝通，幫助他們解決問題。對普遍性毛病，則及時在課堂上講評，并讓學生糾正

2．學生自改。有些毛病只要稍加提示，學生就可以自行改正。這些就讓給學生自改。如一周記中出現若干時態方面的錯誤，我便給予提示:There are some mistakes about the English tenses.Find them out and correct them.或者在錯誤的地方劃上紅線，加個問號。由于這些問題難度不大，一經提示，學生便能給予正確的修改。

3．表揚鼓勵。每次選擇2至3篇寫得較好的周記在班上評講，起到表揚鼓勵，激發寫英文周記的積極性的作用。

第二篇：英語周記

A few day of ago, Miss Hu asked some of us who were going to have the interview to write a PPT which as an introduction of ourselves.Although I didn’t write it, but I still got a lot of inspirations from it.I think that most of us, including me, still have to adjust to the new role now.I think we are lack of learn ability.We are not conscious of the importance of innovation ability.We can’t rich ourselves just when it is needed.It occurred to me that when we first got to NanChang city, we are criticized by the Manager.The reason was that he asked us to learn how to install and use the software but we just ignored it and did something else.We thought that it was the same as to what we did in QingDao city.We thought we just need to sit in the room and wait for someone to teach us.In fact, we took it for granted.It was just a tiny example.We must try to find the best way to enhance our efficiency.It was our duty.We know that Miss Hu was so anxious for seeing the improvement of us.We can see that from what she said in the QQ and what she wrote in the sina Weibo.We also want our department to become stronger and stronger.Beside the hard work, I think communication is also important and necessary.We open our heart to each other and discuss together.The GSC department does not belong to a single person.Its development depends on us.

第三篇：英語周記

Passage 16 New York May Never Win Its War on Rats Video of rats scampering across a New York City restaurant floor may have disturbed viewers worldwide but some experts say the rodents are less dangerous than other creatures drawn to restaurants — humans.The video broadcast on television a week ago showed rats running wild at a KFC/Taco Bell restaurant just one day after the outlet had passed a city Health Department inspection.It took a bite out of the share price of parent company Yum Brands Inc.and forced a city Health Department shake-up that removed the inspector who conducted the review from duty and led to 13 more restaurant closures on Thursday.The owner of the KFC/Taco Bell franchise, ADF Companies, has closed 10 of its restaurants until they pass inspections, and the city closed three other restaurants because of unsanitary conditions or mice, the Health Department said.Yum Brands on Friday hired an urban pest control expert to review standards at its New York City restaurants.The Health Department warned that greater threats to public health include restaurant employees who fail to wash their hands or food stored at improper temperatures.One epidemiologist agreed.Still, the incident reinforces New York’s reputation of having a more severe rat problem than other big cities.New York’s crowded quarters force restaurants to store trash indoors until it can be collected, providing rats with an indoor food source.In addition, New York’s real estate boom means construction is pervasive, scattering rats to a wider geographic area.Passage 17 Beauty Industry With a bit of “physical preparation” — artificial breast implants, a nose job and a little trimming of fat from the hips — you too can aspire to be Miss World.So says Venezuela’s latest candidate for the world beauty contest.Andreina Prieto admitted that were it not for the help of cosmetic surgery, she probably would not have made the line-up.The raven-haired 19-year-old was chosen from among 40 other contestants to represent the South American country at the Miss World competition in South Africa.Prieto, wearing a blue bikini, told reporters that prior to entering the competition, she had three separate operations: one to improve the shape of her nose, a liposuction to remove fat from her hips and breast implants.“If it wasn’t for that, I probably wouldn’t be here,” she said.She displayed a brilliant smile, but did not say if that too was the result of surgery.Oil-rich Venezuela takes the beauty industry very seriously and has gained a reputation as a “factory” of international beauty contest winners.Venezuelan women have won five Miss World titles and four Miss Universe crowns.A private company, the Miss Venezuela Organization, specializes in preparing candidates for the Miss World and Miss Universe contests, and spends around $72,000 on each contender, in clothes, diets and, of course, cosmetic surgery.Passage 18 Population Growth The growth of population during the past few centuries is no proof that population will continue to grow straight upward toward infinity and doom.On the contrary, demographic history offers evidence that population growth has not been at all constant.According to paleoecologist Edward Deevey, the past million years show three momentous changes.The first, a rapid increase in population around one million B.C., followed the innovations of tool-making and tool-using.But when the new power from the use of tools has been exploited, the rate of world population growth fell and became almost stable.The next rapid jump in population started perhaps 10,000 years ago, when mankind began to keep herds, plow and plant the earth.Once again when initial productivity gains had been absorbed, the rate of population growth abated.These two episodes suggest that the third great change, the present rapid growth, which began in the West between 250 and 350 years ago, may also slow down when, or if , technology begins to yield fewer innovations.Of course, the current knowledge revolution may continue without foreseeable end.Either way — contrary to popular belief in constant geometric growth — population can be expected in the long run to adjust to productivity.And when one takes this view, population growth is seen to represent economic progress and human triumph rather than social failure.Passage 19 Food and Health The food we eat seems to have a profound impact on our health.Although science has made enormous steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat.Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of all human illnesses are related to diet and forty percent of cancer is related to the diet as well, especially cancer of the colon.Different cultures are more prone to contract certain illnesses because of the food that is characteristic in these cultures.That food is related to illness is not a new discovery.In 1945, government researchers realized that nitrates and nitrites, commonly used to preserve color in meats, and other food additives, caused cancer.Yet, these carcinogenic additives remain in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which things in the packaging labels of processed food are helpful or harmful.The additives which we eat are not all so direct.Farmers often give penicillin to beef and poultry, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of treated cows.Sometimes similar drugs are administered to animals not for medicinal purposes, but for financial reasons.The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to obtain a higher price on the market.Although the Food and Drug Administration(FDA)has tried repeatedly to control these procedures, the practices continue.Passage 20 UK Urged to Update Copyright Laws The UK is currently using copyright laws that are more than 300 years old.Ministers in the United Kingdom are being urged to modify copyright laws to allow users to be able to legally rip CDs and DVDs for personal use.The Institute for Public Policy Research(IPPR)wants users to have a “private right to copy” digital content.The IPPR acknowledged that the music and film industries are justified in battling illegal file sharing.But the IPPR argues that making copies for personal use does not have significant impact on copyright holders.Millions of Britons are violating current copyright laws by ripping CDs onto their MP3 players and /or PCs.Currently, Britons are violating an outdated 300-year-old law when copying CDs and DVDs.The British Phonographic Institute has already stated that it will not pursue its rights to bring private copying cases against users if the copying truly is for private purposes only.An independent research study reports that around 59 percent of Britons believe copying CDs and DVDs to other devices is legal.The chairman of the culture, media and sport select committee inquiry admits that he and his children are in violation of the law.“My own view is that the current laws are unsatisfactory as it is difficult to say to consumers that this bit of the law matters and this bit doesn’t matter,” Conservative MP John Whittingdale said.Passage 21 A Growing Number of American Men Get Alimony Across the country, a growing number of divorced men are getting alimony from their former wives.While far more women receive alimony than men, divorce lawyers estimate that 5% to 10% of their male clients now get such payments, up from only 3% five years ago.Men seeking financial support from the rich and famous ex-wives have made headlines in recent years.But the ranks of ex-husbands getting alimony from their former spouses now are as likely to include the guy around the corner who gets a monthly check from an ex-wife whose bank account is fatter than his.“Women are getting better, higher-paying jobs at the same time that men’s wages are decreasing,” says Kathryn Rettig, a sociologist at the University of Minnesota, explaining why the number of men receiving alimony is increasing.She adds，“If women want equality under the law, they have to take the responsibility for supporting dependent spouses.”

Like women, men are being awarded alimony for a few years as compensation for putting their wives through college or graduate school or for following transferred spouses around the country.And, like women, men are persuading judges to award them alimony indefinitely if they are sick or disabled or have stayed home to raise children.In out-of-court settlements, high-income women are even agreeing to pay alimony to their ex-husbands instead of giving them some property because alimony is tax-deductible.Passage 22(92)Rainbow I wonder if there is any girl or boy who does not like to see a rainbow in the sky.It is so beautiful!There is a fairy tale saying whenever you see a rainbow you should run at once to the place where it touches the ground, and there you would find a pot of gold.Of course, it is not true.Neither could you find the pot of the gold, nor could you ever find the rainbow’s end.No matter how far you run, it always seems at a great distance.A rainbow is not a thing which we can feel with our hands as we can feel a flower.It is not solid, for it is only the effect of light shining on raindrops.The light from the sun shines on the rain as it falls to the earth.The raindrops catch the sunlight and break it up into all the wonderful colors which we see.It is called a rainbow because it is made up of raindrops and looks like a bow.That is also why we can never see a rainbow in a clear sky.We see a rainbow only during showers or storms, only when there is still rain in the air and the sun still shines brightly through the clouds.Every rainbow has many colors which are arranged in the same order.The first or the top color is always red, next comes orange, then yellow and green, and last of all the blue and deep blue or violet.A rainbow is indeed one of the wonders of nature.Passage 23 Gratuitous Gratuities Everybody loathes it, but everybody does it.A recent poll showed that 40% of Americans hate the practice.It seems so arbitrary, after all.In America alone, tipping is now a $ 16 billion-a-year industry.Consumers acting rationally ought not to pay more than they have to for a given service.Tips should not exist.So why do they? The conventional wisdom is that tips both reward the efforts of good service and reduce uncomfortable feelings of inequality.The better the service, the bigger the tip.Such explanations no doubt explain the purported origin of tipping.In the 16th century, boxes in English taverns carried the phrase “To Insure Promptitude”(later just “TIP”).But according to new research from Cornell University, tipping no longer serves any useful function.The paper analyses data from 2,547 groups dining at 20 different restaurants.The correlation between larger tips and better service was very weak: only a tiny part of the variability in the size of the tip had anything to do with the quality of service.Customers who rated a meal as “excellent” still tipped anywhere between 8% and 37% of the meal price.Tipping is better explained by culture than by economics.In America, the custom has become institutionalized: it is regarded as part of the accepted cost of a service.In Europe, tipping is less common.In many Asian countries, tipping has never really caught on at all.How to account for these national differences? Look no further than psychology.According to Michael Lynn, the Cornell paper’s co-author, countries in which people are more extrovert, sociable or neurotic tend to tip more.Tipping relieves anxiety about being served by strangers.Passage 24 Football Team’s Only Game Was Drugs They looked like a real football team — with snarling coach included.But the 10 men arrested at the weekend in Spain’s southern province of Cadiz were not going to play a match, despite their yellow and blue kit.They were drug traffickers who used their footballs, knapsacks and club strips, emblazoned with the team name of a local town, Guillen Moreno CF, as a ruse to fool border police as they passed from the Spanish enclave of Ceuta, in North Africa, to Algeciras, on the southern Spanish mainland, a police spokesman in Cadiz said.The fake team would usually cross the Straits of Gibraltar into the province of Cadiz on Saturday afternoons with the hash tucked beneath their jerseys and stage a drama to enhance their credibility before border agents.The supposed manager, 49, would carry a roster in his hand and continuously bark at the young men “Everybody pay attention, everybody stay right here!” and “Come on, follow me!”.The players would cross back to Ceuta on Sundays after the fictional match and actual drug sales in Spain.Police do not know how long the fake season lasted before a tip spurred an investigation.The game ended when officers stopped their cars in Cadiz and found a total of 16kg of hash hidden beneath the men’s strips in little pellets taped to their bodies.Passage 25(93)Sleep Sleep is a part of a person’s daily activity cycle.There are several different stages of sleep, and they too occur in cycles.If you are an average sleeper, your sleep cycle is as follows.When you first drift off into slumber, your eyes will roll about a bit, and your temperature will drop slightly, your muscles will relax, and your breathing will slow and become quite regular.Your brain waves slow down a bit too, with the alpha rhythm of rather fast waves predominating for the first few minutes.This is called stage 1 sleep.For the next half hour or so, as you relax more and more, you will drift down through stage 2 and stage 3 sleep.The lower your stage of sleep, the slower your brain waves will be.Then about 40 to 60 minutes after you lose consciousness you will have reached the deepest sleep of all.Your brain waves will show the large slow waves that are known as the delta rhythm.This is stage 4 sleep.You do not remain at this deep fourth stage all night long, but instead about 80 minutes after you fall into slumber, your brain activity level will increase again slightly.The delta rhythm will disappear, to be replaced by the activity pattern of brain waves.Your eyes will begin to dart around under your closed eyelids.This period of rapid eye movement lasts for some 8 to 15 minutes and is called REM sleep.It is during REM sleep period that your body will soon relax again, your breathing will grow slow and regular once more, and you will slip gently back from stage 1 to stage 4 sleep — only to rise once again to the surface of near consciousness some 80 minutes later.Passage 26 Face and Fortune Recently, at the instigation of my publisher, I had some photographs taken.I do not enjoy the process of being photographed.However, after I compared the new photograph with one taken twenty-five years ago, my feminine vanity suffered.My first instinct was to have the prints “touched up”.As I thoughtfully considered the photographs, I knew that a still more important principle was involved.A quarter century of living should put a great deal into a woman’s face besides a few wrinkles and some unwelcome folds around the chin.In that length of time she has become intimately acquainted with pain and pleasure, joy and sorrow, life and death.She has struggled and survived, failed and succeeded.She has lost and regained faith.And, as a result, she would be wiser, gentler, more patient and more tolerant than she was when she was young.Her sense of humor should have mellowed, her outlook should have widened, and her sympathies should have deepened.And all this should show.If she tries to erase the imprint of age, she runs the risk of destroying, at the same time, the imprint of experience and character.I know I am more experienced than I was a quarter century ago and I hope I have more character.I released the pictures as they were.Passage 27(94)Readers Reveal Stuff of Dreams Psychologists have confirmed what writers have always believed: that books are literally the stuff of dreams.A survey has confirmed that readers of Iris Murdoch or JK Rowling are more likely to have bizarre dreams than people deep into a history of the crusades.People with a taste for fiction experienced dreams that contained more improbable events, and their dreams were more emotionally intense.The survey also found that people who read thrillers were no more likely to have nightmares.But those with a weakness for science fiction were rather more likely to wake up suddenly with a cold sweat.According to Mark Blagrove of the University of Wales, the study is perhaps the first experiment to determine a link between the waking world and dreams.Dr.Blagrove and colleagues distributed 100,000 questionnaires about sleep patterns and literary tastes, and got more than 10,000 replies.They found that 58% of all adults had experienced at least one dream in which they were aware they were dreaming — and that women could recall more dreams than men.Older people seemed to dream less and have fewer nightmares.About 44% of children said their dreams were affected by the books they had been reading.Children who report reading scary books have three times the number of nightmares as children who don’t.Passage 28 Andrew Carnegie Andrew Carnegie, known, as the king of steel, built the steel industry in the United States, and, in the process, became one of the wealthiest men in America.His success resulted in part from his ability to sell the product and in part from his policy of expanding during periods of economic decline, when most of his competitors were reducing their investments.Carnegie believed that individuals should progress through hard work, but he also felt strongly that the wealthy should use their fortunes for the benefit of society.He opposed charity, preferring instead to provide educational opportunities that would allow others to help themselves.“He who dies rich, dies disgraced, ” he often said.Among his more noteworthy contributions to society are those that bear his name, including the Carnegie Institute of Pittsburgh, which has a library, a museum of fine arts, and a museum of national history.He also founded a school of technology that is now part of Carnegie Mellon University.Other philanthropic gifts are the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace to promote understanding between nations, the Carnegie Institute of Washington to fund scientific research, and Carnegie Hall to provide a center for the arts.Few Americans have been left untouched by Andrew Carnegie’s generosity.His contributions of more than five million dollars established 2,500 libraries in small communities throughout the country and formed the nucleus of the public library system that we all enjoy today.Passage 29 Princess Diana What was it about Diana, Princess of Wales that brought such huge numbers of people from all walks of life literally to their knees after her death in 1997? What was her special appeal, not just to British subjects but also to people the world over? A late spasm of royalism hardly explains it, even in Britain, for many true British monarchists despised her for cheapening the royal institution by behaving more like a movie star or a pop diva than a princess.To many others, however, that was precisely her attraction.Diana was beautiful, in a fresh-faced, English, outdoors-girl kind of way.She used her big blue eyes to their fullest advantage, melting the hearts of men and women through an expression of complete vulnerability.Diana’s eyes, like those of Marilyn Monroe, contained an appeal directed not to any individual but to the world at large.Please don’t hurt me, they seemed to say.She often looked as if she were on the verge of tears, in the manner of folk images of the Virgin Mary.Yet she was one of the richest, most glamorous and socially powerful women in the world.This combination of vulnerability and power was perhaps her greatest asset.Passage 30 A Greek to Remember Diogenes was a famous Greek philosopher of the fourth century B.C., who established the philosophy of cynicism.He often walked about in the daytime holding a lighted lantern, peering around as if he were looking for something.When questioned about his odd behavior, he would reply, “I am searching for an honest man.”

Diogenes held that the good man was self-sufficient and did not require material comforts or wealth.He believed that wealth and possessions constrained humanity’s natural state of freedom.In keeping with his philosophy, he was perfectly satisfied with making his home in a large tub discarded from the temple of Cybele, the goddess of nature.This earthen tub, called a pithos, and formerly been used for holding wine or oil for the sacrifices at the temple.One day, Alexander the Great, conqueror of half the civilized world, saw Diogenes sitting in this tub in the sunshine.So the king, surrounded by his countries, approached Diogenes and said, “I am Alexander the Great.” The philosopher replied rather contemptuously, “I am Diogenes, the Cynic.” Alexander then asked him if he could help him in any way.“Yes,” shot back Diogenes, “don’t stand between me and the sun.” A surprised Alexander then replied quickly, “If I were not Alexander, I would be Diogenes.”

英語周記范文1

在辦公室和同事聊學生的時候，“學生拖欠或不做作業”這個話題似乎常出現在我們的談話之中。大家交流著學生不做作業的原因，商討著改變這一不良習慣的策略。

每星期我會發一張英語家庭作業反饋表，要求學生把每天的家庭作業抄在紙條上，完成后讓家長檢查并簽字。我會隨時抽查反饋表，看是否完成家作。周三我對學生的作業反饋表進行例行檢查。當我走到某個同學面前時，我發現平時活潑好動的她，今天怎么顯得如此緊張。我讀懂了他的眼神：肯定沒完成作業。我的臉一下子拉長了，非常的生氣，表現這么好的學生居然沒做作業。正當我想要破口大罵她時，我看到她眼里的淚花，在眼眶里打轉。就在剎那間，我突然想起了一則故事：有一位少年潛進公寓，正要偷竊時，突然發現一個病中的女孩躺在床上。那女孩面對小偷，沒有驚慌，而是用友善的態度微笑的問小偷是否走錯了門，并和他親切地交談。這個病中的女孩善待了這個入盜者，維護了這個小偷的自尊。后來這位少年經過努力，成為了一個公司的經理。想到這個故事，我憤怒的表情頓時被微笑所代替。我問道：“你是不是生病了，沒辦法完成作業？還是你忘了帶？”他點了點頭，顫抖著說：“老師，我明天帶來行嗎？”我點了點頭說：“當然可以?！?/p>

第二天，他面帶微笑地跑到辦公室，高興地說：“老師，我的`作業?！蔽铱粗淖鳂I，心想：他是什么原因沒及時交作業，都已經不重要了。重要的是他認識了錯誤并及時改正。我很高興，因為我善待了學生的一次錯誤，維護了學生的自尊。這個事告誡我：我面對的是一群純潔、活潑的生命，應時時刻刻做個教育教學的有心人。

It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.

The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch swing with，never say a word，and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.

It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone，an hour to like someone，and a day to love someone- but it takes a lifetime to forget someone

Dream what you want to dream；go where you want to go；be what you want to be，because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do.

Love begins with a smile，grows with a kiss，ends with a tear. When you were born，you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die，you're the one smiling and everyone around you is crying.

上周我們去南宮市擔任高考指紋驗證操作員，這個班級的課程便落下，給我印象最深的就是我一直馬不停蹄的追趕，因為這個班級有將近一個星期的時間沒有上英語課，我必須把課文追上，這是次要的，更重要的是讓這個班級的學生學一課掌握一課，真正在素質上跟上。根據這一點，我想要做好以下幾點：

1.要讓學生溫故而知新，及時的布置家庭作業，要積少而成多。注重學生平時的積累，而且每天都要讓學生作好復習。于是我們課上設計了聽寫活動，每天布置完家庭作業，我都要進行聽寫考試，對表現好的同學及時給予鼓勵。比如發給他一朵小紅花，在班內通報公開表揚等形式，真正調動了學生的積極性。

2、及時與家長溝通，發現學生的不良反映或表現不好的行為、去成績下降等及時與家長溝通了解情況。前一段時間，我發現班內楊慶良的成績一路下滑，于是我與家長進行了一次談話。發現楊慶良同學原來一直在利用下午放學的時間去操場練習籃球?！皬娚斫◇w”自然是一件好事，但是要保證給孩子充足的學習時間，而楊慶良卻顧此失彼了。于是我和家長達成了共識，如果他的成績總是這樣，就取消他的活動，而一門心思的投入到學習當中。我想從這以后，他一定會取得好成績，獲得進步的。

3.后進生要多加關注，不能放任自流。后進生的問題是班內的一個大問題，也是讓老師頭疼的問題。沒有辦法，人與人之間總是存在著個體差異，十個手指還不一般齊呢！后進生自理能力差、貪玩，教師要進行個別指導，多給他們時間，對于難掌握的地方要重點指導，利用放學后的半個小時進行指導學習，使其共同進步！

The summer holiday that I am looking forward to is drawing near.So I have already made

a plan for it.First,it’s important for me to finish my homework ahead of time.Next,I am fond of

travelling,I hope that I can take a vacation to anywhere I like this holiday.Last,I am not satisfied

with my final exam results.As an old saying goes:“Where there is a way,there is a will”.I think if

I could study hard,my results will improve soon.Last,I am ready for this summer.All in all,may I

have a wonderful summer vacation.英語周記2No one can deny that The London Olympic Games is a world class event.The Olympic

Games have a tremendous effect on everyone.To be honest,every time when I hear the national

anthem,accompanied by the rising of the national flag,I will be very prond.To some extent,it

reflects our patriotism.For example,when you see the Chinese athletes make every effort to win

the first price in the competition and finally they make it,I am sure you will feel quite

excited.Through the Olympic Games,we can know not only the athletes’ effort,but also the

countries’physical level.Thanks to the Olympic Games, our life is more interesting.英語周記3

Nowadays,it is a common phenomenon that more and more high school students open

their own blogs on the Internet.So I also open a blog for myself this summer.It provides me a

colorful platform to showcase my talent and it's always to release pressure when I feel anxious.But

my parents don't want me to spend too much time on it.They insist that managing my blog will

take a lot of time and energy,while this should be used to study and review,which is my main

responsibility.But I don't approue of their thoughts.I believe blog itself is of little harm.It is

attitude towards it that matters.I know clearly that what I should do is to take the advantages and

avoid some bad effects.英語周記4

As is well-known to all,books teaches us to learn life,truth,science and many other useful

things.They increase our knowledge,broaden our minds and strengthen our characters.In others

words,they are our good teachers and wise friends.That is the reason why so many people read

books in their free time.Reading is a good thing,but we must pay attention to the choice of books.I

read A Dream of the Red Mansion this summer.This book told me that we should deal with a

interpersonal relationship properly.But I know the author of that book don't want to let our know

this only.Because I always keep a sentence in mind,the sentence is “Learning without thinking

leads to confusion;thinking without studying results in tardiness.”

I heard that the Great Wall is very magnificent.As an old saying goes:“Seeing is

believing.”So I went to Beijing to climb The Great Wall.The Great Wall ,which is more than 6000

kilometers long,is the longest wall in the world.It has a history of more than 2000 years.It is made

of stone and bricks and almost all the construction was done by hands without any machine.As the

wall was built to defend the country against foreign invaders,there were watchtowers every few

hundred meters along the wall.Now,the Great Wall is one of the most famous places of interest in

China and it attacts many visitors every year.I have to say this trip does really a good trip.英語周記6
